Captain Morgan here from the bridge again.Travel dates set: Depart from Saint Louis 9:35 am. December 6th. Arrive in Beijing. Take flight to Xi'an. Sleep. Rest. Recover. Eat exotic food. Attempt to sleep again. Welcome Cory to the family, Saturday, December 9th. Adoption documents completed the 10th.
Presently: Packing suitcases. Making lists. Checking them twice. Scrambling to finish last minute details before the trip. Trying to find meds, munchies, and milk chocolate (chocolate has energy. We need energy). Oliver is beginning male bonding time with his pet, Matt. Preparing warmer clothes for abnormal temperatures. During the trip, we will visit Xi'an, Beijing, and Guangzhou-temperatures may vary as drastically as 30 degrees between locations. Above is my little brother, who already has decided to follow after his sister and work on improving his blogging skills! Finally, we are anxiously awaiting Departure Day: D-Day! Looking forward to keeping y'all posted. We will read all posted comments, I can't guarantee individual responses.
